Armin looked at Mikasa in surprise; even when facing powerful Titans, Mikasa had never shown fear before.
But Mikasa shook her head; she could sense some of the energy within Roy, and it was precisely this energy that filled her with dread.
Just then, Roy made an unexpected move.
He slowly extended his right hand, palm up, and a fragment of the Divine Tree, emitting a faint, eerie glow, materialized from the void.
Roy gave it a gentle toss, and the Divine Tree fragment, as if possessing a life of its own, swiftly took root in the earth, its roots spreading rapidly deep into the crust, greedily absorbing the life force and energy from this crimson land.
The massive flesh remnants left by the Rumbling were now being frantically absorbed by the Divine Tree fragment, and it seemed the flesh of this world suited its appetite perfectly as it devoured ravenously.
In just a few short breaths, the originally slender Divine Tree fragment visibly thickened and began to faintly glow.
Witnessing this, a faint smile tugged at the corner of Roy's mouth.
Nourished by his Tailed Beast chakra, though the Divine Tree fragment couldn't yet compare to the original, it had already begun to display divine qualities.
"Who the hell are you?" Eren's voice suddenly rang out, tinged with shock and anger.
In the future glimpses he had seen within the Paths, this person did not exist, leaving him confused and unsettled.
"Me?" Roy smiled slightly, a hint of mockery in his tone. "Consider me the future god of this world. Or perhaps, the savior summoned by your queen, Historia."
Roy's words struck like thunder, exploding in their minds.
Eren looked as if he had been struck by lightning, a mix of madness and disbelief flashing in his eyes.
"Impossible! You're just some guy with weird powers!"
Eren roared and activated his ability.
In an instant, dozens of Colossal Titans, as if receiving a command, surged forward with incredible speed, charging at Roy like collapsing mountains, intent on crushing this unexpected "savior."
"Die!" The spectacle of the Colossal Titans accelerating together was earth-shattering.
He had already foreseen the tragic fate awaiting this outsider.
But at this critical moment, Eren's precognitive ability showed him a completely different future.
Meanwhile, facing the enraged Eren, Roy simply shook his head gently.
"Still not giving up…" Before Roy could finish, a boundless surge of golden energy erupted behind him, cascading down like a brilliant galaxy, swiftly coalescing into countless magatama that crashed down upon the charging Colossal Titans.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Amidst a series of deafening explosions, the Colossal Titans, despite their immense size and power, wailed under the relentless barrage of magatama, ultimately shattering into a rain of blood.
"T-This is terrifying power!" Mikasa and the others watching from a distance were left stunned and speechless.
"What kind of Titan are you?"
Eren screamed hysterically; he possessed the power of the Founding Titan, a power that should have made him invincible and unmatched.
He swung his Titan arm again, and dozens of Colossal Titans surged towards Roy once more.
But before Roy's endless torrent of energy magatama, these formidable Titans were swiftly dealt with.
"Impossible! This can't be!"
Eren pushed the Founding Titan's energy within him to its absolute limit. Under his control, countless Titans from all directions swarmed towards Roy, a force capable of instantly flattening any nation.
"It's useless. No matter how many you send, you won't change the outcome."
"Yasakani no Magatama."
Before his words faded, countless magatama, blazing with brilliant light, suddenly filled the sky.
"What is happening to this world?"
Far away, Armin and the others stared at the scene, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
They could hardly believe that the world had transformed like this in such a short time.
This level of power far exceeded human understanding; calling it a divine descent wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Faced with such terrifying might, a profound sense of helplessness welled up within them.
Wisdom and strategy seemed utterly meaningless in the face of such absolute power.
Was it really possible to resist such an existence? The answer seemed self-evident: absolutely impossible.
High above, while Roy continued to bombard the Colossal Titans, his brow furrowed slightly.
He realized that despite shattering these Titans continuously, the tide of Colossal Titans seemed endless, constantly regenerating.
"So this is the power of Ymir within the Paths?" Roy pondered.
Seeing his attacks weren't truly effective, Eren's gaze grew even more ferocious.
He unhesitatingly unleashed his full power, summoning the souls of past Nine Titans to join the battle.
Among them, the Beast Titan leaped with astonishing speed, launching fierce attacks at Roy again and again.
Its massive form instantly appeared before Roy. Another Beast Titan followed suit, hurling boulders like cannonballs.
Simultaneously, the War Hammer Titan's crystallized spear tore through the air, thrusting straight at Roy's chest.
"Die."
Eren shouted furiously.
But in the next instant, Roy's right eye began to spin wildly.
"Eternal Hourglass!"
Roy's right eye blazed with a crimson light, within which a tiny clock seemed to tick slowly.
In that moment, time across the entire battlefield seemed to grind to a halt.
The Beast Titan's leap froze mid-air; the hurled spear hung suspended.
"How can this be?!" Panic surged through Eren. Involuntarily, he looked again at Roy's right eye, finding his body bound by an invisible force, unable to move even a finger.
Just then, Roy gently clasped his hands together.
A wooden golem, countless times larger than a Colossal Titan, materialized out of thin air, standing as majestic as a mountain.
With heavy strides, the wooden golem advanced, crushing the time-frozen Colossal Titans beneath its feet.
Meanwhile, countless towering trees burst from the earth across the battlefield, growing at an astonishing rate, autonomously seeking out Titans before piercing through their bodies, continuously absorbing their vitality and nutrients into themselves.
Above, countless fine particles of light converged from all directions, swirling around Roy, forming a brilliant, dazzling halo.
"Unlimited Blade Works!"
